Canada
  • CATMAT is Canada's Committee to Advise on Tropical Medicine and Travel. Its aim is to protect Canadians who travel outside the country by disseminating information to practitioners, the public, and to travelers themselves.

  • The Canadian Coalition for Influenza Immunization maintains an attractive and information-rich, yet fast-loading website on the flu and how to prevent it. The site is also offered in French.

  • Canada Communicable Disease Report is the official update on infectious diseases in that country, similar in purpose and realization to the American Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).

  • Canada's flu vaccination site Blast the Flu (and in French, Méchante la Grippe) is provided by the National Influenza Immunization Campaign. It carries an especially valuable FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section in both sections.
  • The Canadian Immunization Awareness Page, overseen by a coalition of ten national organizations, has an attractive, quick-to-load website that carries all basic information on the who, what, where, when and why of immunization. The page is
    offered in French as well as English; entering either version, the language choice is offered right at the top of the page.

  • Doctor's Guide To Medical News is a quick way for practitioners to keep up with news items, medical and otherwise. (But quick becomes slow when you download the page with images, due to some attractive graphics plus advertising with animation.) The page is produced by PSL Consulting Group in Montreal.

  • Hepatitis Information Network (HepNet) is a Canadian site that provides information and news on hepatitis A, B, C and G. It currently carries a valuable update on hepatitis vaccination.
  • National Advisory Committee on Immunization is the official body that advises on recommendations for the use of vaccines currently or newly licensed for use in humans in Canada, including the identification of high risk groups for whom vaccine programs should be targeted.
  • The Vaccine Evaluation Centre (VEC) is the first formal center for independent vaccine evaluation research in Canada. It is a joint product of B.C.'s Children's Hospital and the University of British Columbia. The center is designed to facilitate independent studies of a broad range of clinical immunization issues, with the goal of developing data that will help health authorities select the best vaccines and strategies for use in immunization programs.
